does not install on Windows

I am trying to install on Windows 7 x64 via npm install ref which fails. It seems python is missing. If that is a required dependency, it would be good to mention that in the README. Some system info:

C:\Users\sbuergel>npm version
{ npm: '2.11.3',
  http_parser: '2.3',
  modules: '14',
  node: '0.12.7',
  openssl: '1.0.1p',
  uv: '1.6.1',
  v8: '3.28.71.19',
  zlib: '1.2.8' }

C:\Users\sbuergel>node --version
v0.12.7

This is the console output:

C:\Users\sbuergel>npm install ref
